If a completely over the top RPG-roguelike-monster-collecting mashup with literally thousands of hours worth of content and more than 1200 unique monsters to collect sounds like your particular cup of tea, I can’t recommend the Siralim games enough. They seem completely benign from the outside, and then you step into one and soon realize that you will never, ever get out." I love that description so much because it’s so darn true. I think I’ll steal from our own Shaun Musgrave’s review of Siralim 3 on the Switch from a few years ago: “The Siralim games are like well-hidden sinkholes to the center of the Earth. I’m not even sure how to begin to describe Siralim Ultimate. For whatever reason that was the one that clicked with me, so I was thrilled to see Siralim Ultimate pop up on the App Store this week, especially because I wasn’t even aware it existed or that it was getting a mobile port. I have to admit, I found the first two Siralim games too difficult for me to get into, but Siralim 3? Oh boy, I lost more hours to that game than I could possibly count. So where do you go from there? After an Early Access period, Thylacine released Siralim Ultimate on Steam this past December, and now its mobile iteration has arrived this week. Each game more stuffed to the gills with awesome things to do.
They’ve grown with each entry too, starting with the original Siralim on mobile back in July of 2014, followed by Siralim 2 about two years later in August of 2016, and Siralim 3 just about two more years later in October of 2018. But as catchy as “ Pokemon meets Diablo" is, it still doesn’t do the series justice because there’s just so much more you can do in these games. The elevator pitch would be to call it Pokemon mixed with Diablo, as the main elements are to collect, upgrade, and combine a huge mixture of monster types to use in battle as you go dungeon diving and complete various quests around the game’s huge open world. The Siralim games from developer Thylacine Studios have provided some of the deepest and content rich RPG-ish type games on mobile for nearly a decade now.
